youngdecoyer Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Thats very sad to hear Fenny. I have also had the pleasure of shooting with Fenny and he gave me invaluable advice and incouragement ,even when i couldn't hit a barn door. Without knowing the details im in no position to judge but armed trespass is a serious crime and i think others should be aware of such a person. I hope your relationship with your farmer is undamaged and you do not lose land over this. Your generousity is greatly appreciated and it would be a real shame to let the actions of one person impact every safe shooter. All the best. Youngdecoyer.

M.I.A Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 It really is a shame, ive offered plenty of days out and this is always at the back of my mind. As a result i only offer days out to people i know or who have been out with me prior. If your reading this you need to fess up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asa Bear Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 You say he's a member , so at a rough guess he is probably reading this thread , so do the decent thing and own up because sooner or later its going to come out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Browning 425 clay hunter Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 I know it's a tricky position to be in fenny but what's to stop this guy sending pm's to people offering what you did and doing the same to them. I doubt he will own up to his actions so does this guy deserve to get away with it. Next time he could cost someone their hard earned permission. Not all farmers will be as understanding as yours. Tough decision for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hodge911 Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 (edited) its happened to me and its not a nice thing makes your look at others with the same light and spoils it for genuine people [he even took others with him lamping the fields :blink: :blink: ] Edited January 5, 2012 by hodge911 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Mongrel- Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 (edited) God but reading these threads does p*** me off. It is as has been said, difficult enough to find land to shoot over (nigh on impossible in Sussex!) without people giving those who offer a chance a kick between the legs! No excuse really if he 'chanced his arm'. We all know the deal on here, a favour on someone elses permission is exactly that, a favour, not an open invite! Edit: I should add that I don't have any farmland to shoot over and as such realise what goes into trying to gain that, and how gutted you'd be to lose it!

TaxiDriver Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 I was lucky enough to be taken out on a days pigeon shooting by someone on here, up in Suffolkshire. I wouldn't dream of going back uninvited (there wasn't any darn pigeons !!) It seems when someone gets summat good going, there's always some t1t gonna spoil it fer everybody else.

inthedark Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 I'd just like to add my sympathies for fennys position. Very poor form Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.I.A Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Some people dont realise how lucky they are to be in possesion of a sgc, fac etc. To put them at risk in a situation like this certainly takes a first class idiot who shouldnt have them in the first place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
